In the fourth of this week's highlights from around Europe, the Collegium Vocale Gent and the period instrument Orchestre des Champs-Elys茅es are conducted by their founder Philippe Herreweghe. This all-Bruckner programme recorded at the Ghent Festival in September in the magnificent setting of St Bavo's Cathedral pairs the devotional, heartfelt and masterly Mass in E minor with the rarely heard Symphony No. 2 which set the template for Bruckner's later symphonies.
